About MissViaggio

When I was diagnosed with celiac disease at the age of 17, my life changed tremendously overnight. I was in shock about the fact that I was never allowed to eat glutenous Pizza, Pasta & Co again. It felt like something important had been taken from me, something I would never get back. At first, I also struggeled with traveling because I was afraid of not finding anything to eat. After a while, however, I made friends with my new situation and today it's like it has never been different. I am not afraid of traveling anymore (mainly because I realized that I will always be able to find something gluten free). And so I've seen many beautiful places in the past few years. I've met amazing people who took me to places that were not even on my bucket list but enchanted me anyway.

At the same time, I began to write travel diaries. At first, I just wanted to combat oblivion and keep all my experiences, feelings and impressions alive. Later I realized that my diaries have so much more in it - information about gluten free cafés and restaurants and other useful information which I am glad to share with you here. Hence, this travel blog with its numorous stories and tips became my passion project. Its purpose is to inform, to entertain, and to inspire you. At best all three.

What else to say? In my spare time, I go hiking. So don't be surprised if I also report on my adventures in the mountains or on the hiking trails. At some point, I always have to lace up my hiking boots (that have been on three different continents by now) and get out into nature. It is like an addiction but a good one.

Now, just dive right into my stories and hopefully discover your wanderlust as well.

Love, MissViaggio

P.S. In case you are wondering why I named my blog MissViaggio. Well, miss is self-explaining, I guess, and viaggio is Italian and means travel. After spending many summers in Sardinia and finding my passion for traveling there, I just feel very attached to the Italian language.
